I was a Glock guy for years. Still shoot a Glock regularly, carried either a 19 or 26 almost exclusively for years. Shot a P2000 a while back and I was sold. It's barrel length is in between a Glock 26 and 19, and the grip is barely shorter than the 19. The slide and grip however are rounded and much for comfortable for IWB carry.

Holding 2 less rounds then the 19 is made up in accuracy. When I rented a P2000, I shot it more accurately than the 19s I've put thousands of rounds through. The fantastic ergonomics, reliability, and sleek lines, make it the best concealed carry weapon. Prove me wrong.

No.

Personal preference aside, it has a mediocre trigger, less capacity and pricey mags  compared to competitors.

I would take a Walther P99 AS anyday over it, not even mentioning G19, CZ P01, or a M&P 2.0c.

Carried a P2000 for several years, they are not bad pistols. G19 is the answer to best CC gun.

I prefer the USP Compact but only because of the cocked and locked option.

I think the P2000SK is a little more versatile since it has both compact and subcompact mag options/capacities.

As a person who carries nothing but Glocks, I believe that would be a damn fine CC handgun.  Highly reliable.  Well made.  You should shoot the shit out of it and carry with confidence.

I hate the strategy corporate HK took years ago.  I also hate their mags are so expensive.  

I'd carry one in a heartbeat.

What strategy? Yes, mags suck. But they seem to last damn near forever. Local shop had some barely used ones on sale for $30 each out the door. I loaded up.

Which is still huge compared to something like a Ruger LC9, LCP or Sig 938.

That might be a great winter jacket gun but it's worthless in warm weather and we have a lot of warm weather.

I appendix carry one everyday. First the V3, but I recently got a V1 that took over as my primary carry pistol. The trigger definitely smooths out on the V3 after a while. My V1 was pretty good right out of the box.

I carry the p30sk everyday and it is my idea of a perfect CC edc.  I’ll pick up a p2000sk at some point since I don’t have one

It's my carry gun.
I settled on it after carrying Glocks for some time. Previously I'd carried a Sig P239. I have carried J Frames, and a USPC .45.

Here's why: I'd rather carry a DA/SA gun. I can shoot them as well as I can anything, having competed with revolvers for decades.
People complain about the HK trigger. It can be used very accurately, with practice.
Yes, there are better triggers. But think on this: you will carry a gun for thousands of hours. The HK trigger is made for a carry gun. If you can shoot it accurately, that makes it a better (safer) option. I carried an HK USPC 45 for a long time, and shot it in competition and training courses. If you are willing to put in the time to learn them, they are: reliable. accurate. safe.

I carry a .40sw P2000 on duty.  I shoot many other guns better than I shoot this one - and I'm an avid shooter.  I blame the caliber.

That being said - I've never carried a more reliable weapon in my career of 15+ years - Glock 22, Glock 23, Springfield XD, Sig 229 and then this.  They were all good guns, but this damn thing has seen thousands of rounds and rarely ever has an issue - the only thing it's doing now is failing to lock back when empty - I blame this partly on my grip, the crap ammo that I'm issued and worn out parts.  It looks like Hell with all the use - but I trust it everyday.

The P2000sk is meh though - you lose about a half an inch in size on each end.  I got one for off duty stuff - but just end up carrying the P2000 most of the time - or my Glock 43 if I'm worried about needing a deep conceal.

The LEM trigger is nice.  A lot of our guys complained when we went from the G17 to this - but I'd say 90% now like the trigger quite a bit.

Better than those damn Beretta 96 buggers...

Pretty much this. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and preference of course, but imo, people that claim the HK triggers are terrible just need to git gud. I have a Beretta with an exceptional trigger after all the WC parts, I have a P07 with some light CGW modifications, a Blackhawk, and still my HK45C is my favorite carry/duty trigger I've come across. I used to own one over a year ago, traded it away like an idiot, and just picked one up again and put ~100rds through it on a trip to Austin Saturday. Bone stock, put 8rds through <1.5in at 7yds with first round double action. I'm not that great a pistol shot, haven't been to the range seriously in months (one short fun day with friends about a month prior, a good 2-4mo since actually trying to really hit a target), and a year and a half or so since I actually shot a 45. That gun is still a laser beam.

HK's are like a good, strong, and very flavorful whiskey. Just because you don't know how to handle it doesn't mean it's bad. There's nothing wrong with a Corona, and there's no shame in saying that's all you drink. But claiming that a single malt scotch is bad because of that is just foolish.

I do not own a p2000 but held one and prior to the vp9 carried the uspc. I think the vp9 fits my hand better.

Change my mind if I should add a p2000 and possibly carry that over a vp9

It's not so much the size of the gun that makes you hot, it's the clothing required to conceal a full size handgun. Although I would say that a larger gun requires a much larger IWB holster. I can carry my LCP in a tiny DeSantis leather holster with a single under the belt clip. The footprint difference compared to the Alien Gear horse hide IWB required to conceal my SIG SP2022 is huge. That Sig only weighs a couple ounces more than the HK, so I got a pretty good idea what you're carrying around.

My CCW litmus test is: can I COMFORTABLY carry the holstered gun in casual kahki shorts and a normal sized polo or golf shirt. If it's not comfortable or if I'm obviously showing, then I don't consider it a viable CCW.
